Live Discussion of the Opening Ceremony of the 2014 Sochi Olympics
I have a black and white Sony that dates from 1969 I’ve used.
What are they singing?
Olympic hymn...
Put a few pounds on since this pic.
Just wait 'til you see what Obama has planned for the Chicago games!
What? Why are you laughing?
Here;’s my question. What is the point?
I don’t think this is bad at all.
I think it’s better than Vancouver’s.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Thanks. Guess I forgot they had one. This rooflight display of winter Olympians is pretty cool.
“Whatta yawnfest!”
Say what you will, but I find this a lot more entertaining than the Statist display of totalitarian control we saw in the China Olympics
That’s the first time I’ve seen Valentina Tereshkove in anything other than some dated footage and old photos. She looks great. BTW, the torch used to light the Olympic flame flew aboard the ISS and was carried outside on an EVA by two Russians. It came back a little over a week after launching.
Way too much technology for me.

Here is my opinion. The whole thing is just stupid,
I just found out Olga Korbut lives now in the US, and has for some time.
I only watched the end of one race and boycotted the rest of that Olympics. This is the first time I haven’t watched at all.
Those jellyfish dancers weren’t too bad.
We’re on the west coast, just got by the chief HOMO ASS Obama and NBC propaganda arm’s fawning half hour puke fest, and just mentioned to my wife that Putin is about the only guy you’ll see who you could leave your kids with over the weekend and know they’d be safe. Only change would be the Russian Orthodox bedtime prayers but that’s OK.
I’ve known that for a long time now.
